   Verified Socotra non è solo un viaggio ma è condivisione e spensieratezza
Visitare Socotra con Welcome è stato perfetto! Tutto lo staff si è dimostrato sempre disponibile oltre ad essere tutti molto alla mano, simpatici e gentili. Ogni giorno ci montavano e smontavano le tende rapidamente, i pasti sono sempre stati puntuali e i pneumatici venivano sostituiti in tempo record! Le guide, locale e italiana, sono sempre state disponibili e abbiamo sempre fatto due chiacchiere con loro passando delle serate davvero piacevoli. Abbiamo avuto l’occasione anche di conoscere Matteo, uno dei proprietari di Welcome, e anche lui è una persona davvero genuina e appassionata dell’isola e del suo lavoro. Welcome è stata la ciliegina sulla torta di un luogo gia eccezionale di per sè.

   Verified Truly magnificent
I cannot praise Welcome to Socotra enough for all the hard work and effort they put in to make this the holiday of a lifetime. Matteo and his excellent team did a brilliant job in showing us the beautiful island of Socotra. The views are simply stunning, the exotic fauna and flora beautiful, and the people very friendly. A special mention to Wagdi for imparting his extensive Socotran knowledge and to Salah for keeping us safe on the roads & tracks and for always smiling. This was a brilliant adventure that could not have been better organised and planned. Thank you Matteo !!! P.s…practical tip: there are swimming opportunities every day, so take at least 2 towels (the lightweight camping ones which fold into nothing).

   Verified The island of smiles
Frankly, it’s hard to describe with words our journey in Socotra, it’s not only a trip it’s an experience! Everything was absolutely amazing, and every day was a crescendo of beauty to admire and some of the kindest and most welcoming people to meet. Not to mention the unbelievable “Welcome to Socotra” crew, they made our stay unforgettable. I think that places like Socotra are very peculiar for Westerners, and to fully enjoy them you must rely on people who know locals and know the most beautiful corners like no others. We chose the right guys to show us around. Thank you!

   Verified "Time dissolves the superfluous and preserves the essential" (Alejandro Jodorowsky)
The origin of the word 'Socotra' remains obscure: the name would mean 'paradise' in Sanskrit, for the Indians 'the island of happiness'... I cried with emotion... As always... In front of so many beauties of Nature... The island of Socotra, which Marco Polo also wrote about in 'Il Milione', is 350 kilometers south of the coast of Yemen and 300 kilometers from those of Somalia, almost isolated from the world until the construction of the airport in 2002. Sandy and green on the coast, but mountainous in the interior, it is home to 825 types of fauna and flora, a third of them endemic, that is, present only on the island... Beniamino and the impeccable organization of Welcome to Socotra introduced us (Toyota and tent) to this still uncontaminated paradise of beaches and white dunes, blue sea, canyons, breathtaking landscapes and atmospheres, karst mountains and forests of Drago and Adenium obesum trees '... Simple and tasty food and a successful and unforgettable group experience... Salam aleikum!

I want to express my heartfelt thanks for your hard work in making this trip possible. We were lucky to have top guides, and the staff were fantastic. They handled all the details, making it easy for us to simply savor the view, food, trek, and everything else. Waking up to dolphins leaping in front of our tent was an unforgettable experience. Thank you!
